Here we go again..I have spring fever. Besides all of the gardening catalogs to read, I've dug out my "treasures"...collection of Herb Companion magazines from early 90's thru now. I am sometimes thankful for my poor memory, as everytime I look thru them there is something new. Just in time, I ran across an issue with medieval herbs, recipies, and garden plans. My 12 year old dgd is presenting for her class. Do you have favorite zines, besides MJ's, that you will save to reread? |

Just got the Tasha Tudor garden book and her craft book yesterday. She always puts me in the mood to do so many things, love her books.Also been looking over a nice book on growing herbs, and of course all the MJ reading, and whatever current fiction book I happen to be reading.

The old _Victoria_ magazines that were published from the late 1980s until the early 2000s. What a lovely magazine for ladies! Folks still sell them on eBay for varying price amounts. (The earlier ones tend to cost more. Those were the best as the magazine lost its traditional/classic/old fashioned sense about 1998ish when it started going into the more modern shabby chic stuff.) The magazine covered everything from fashion, crafts, gardening, decorating, cooking, literature and arts, history, etc. in which a lady might be interested.
And the photography was beautiful. There's nothing quite like it on the magazine market today.
